Analogue clocks, particularly clock towers in towns, but also just basic clocks on the wall in your home. With smart devices everywhere, it seems like they're not needed and probably old-fashioned. The circular 12-hour clock face probably feels like the floppy disk icon or the rotary telephone, in terms of how 'of another era' it is, but it's still a fantastic and resilient form factor for the purpose of visualising the passage of time. Digital is great, but analogue will be with us for the foreseeable future (and I'm including in that the representation of analogue in a digital form, e.g. on smartwatches that provide a classic clock face graphic).

I'd say vinyl. Looks like a thing from the 60s but it's still pretty relevant today
I put vinyl siding on my house 15 years ago. Still looks brand new. Vinyl is here to stay.
Writing down your thoughts! Itβs not the same as typing things down, writing really makes me feel lighter and somehow reduces my stress levels.
